Chapter 420: White Army, The Secret of Sunsetting Ridge
Wow!
Seeing this scene, Tim Lewis’s eyes lit up instantly, and the corners of his wrinkled old face curled up into a smug smile. He said excitedly to Howard Taylor and Karen Smith next to him, “Look, look at this! This is Mr. Mason’s charm!”
“Trust me!”
“To be able to follow Mr. Mason is definitely your honor!”
You should know that among the dozens of white-clothed women kneeling at Sean’s feet, nearly half of them were cultivators at the Complete Stage. If they were in the outside world, not to mention a small Swordland, even in a province, or even within the capital of the Shirine Empire, they would be able to dominate the place!
Moreover!
Sean was originally the General Wolf of the Bloody Wolf Group, and now he is the owner of the Hall of Swords!
If!
If these three forces were combined, I’m afraid that as long as Sean wanted to, he could rush into the imperial palace and seize the throne of King Roscoe effortlessly!
So!
Howard Taylor and Karen Smith looked at each other and nodded in agreement. Just as Tim Lewis said, being able to know Sean and cling to Sean’s sturdy thighs was indeed their honor and the blessing they had cultivated in eight lifetimes!
So…
“Mr. Lewis!”
Howard Taylor quickly said, “As Mr. Mason’s right hand man, you have won Mr. Mason’s deep trust. In the future, we will work together for Mr. Mason and rely on Mr. Lewis for more care!”
“Yes, yes!”
Karen Smith also echoed, “As long as Mr. Mason doesn’t despise us, we Smith family are also willing to join the Hall of Swords and become a part of the Hall of Swords, to advance and retreat together with Mr. Mason and live and die with the Hall of Swords!”
Hearing this!
Especially after seeing Howard Taylor and Karen Smith’s fawning appearance, the smile on Tim Lewis’ old face couldn’t help but grow even wider!
Sure enough!
Following Sean was indeed an honor for even the leaders of big families like Howard Taylor and Karen Smith. They had to bow before Tim Lewis!
“Well said!”
“Well said!”
“Hahaha…”
Tim Lewis laughed and said, “Don’t worry, I will definitely put in a good word for you two in front of Mr. Mason to allow you to join the Hall of Swords too!”
Upon hearing this, Howard Taylor and Karen Smith were extremely grateful. Meanwhile, people like Pupil Wolf and Spirit Wolf next to them cast contemptuous glances at Tim Lewis…
…
On the other side!
Seeing that all the disciples she had carefully cultivated were kneeling at Sean’s feet and sincerely submitting to Sean, Sandals secretly breathed a sigh of relief and felt extremely gratified. She took Sean’s hand and said, “Sean, they are all some unfortunate children, with broken clans and no one to rely on. I brought them here to cultivate, hoping that one day, they could kill the treacherous King Ron and avenge their clans!”
“Now!”
“Since you have avenged them, you are their benefactor. They have simple hearts and their loyalty to you is absolutely reliable. You were born extraordinary and destined to take a different path in this life. The road ahead will be full of difficulties and obstacles, and you need their assistance…”
“So!”
“Don’t hesitate, take them in!”
To be honest!
Sean felt very depressed. He had just taken over as the owner of the Hall of Swords, and now he had to take in these beautiful white-clothed women. The trip to the Hill of Swords seemed to have yielded more gains than he had imagined!
Damn!
“Well… okay!”
Sean hesitated for a moment. Thinking of the huge influence of the Hall of Jade across Middleland, relying solely on himself would be difficult to handle. It was imperative to cultivate his own power, so he nodded and said, “Aunt Sandals has worked hard over the years. I’ll take over from here on out!”
Then!
Sean looked down at the white-clothed women kneeling at his feet and said solemnly, “From now on, just like the Bloody Wolf Group and the Hall of Swords, you will have a new name, called…”
“The White Army!”
“I will be in charge of unified command!”
Sean had fought on the Northern Frontier battlefield for five years and was used to life in the barracks. Even after retiring from the army and facing these beautiful white-clothed women, he still subconsciously named them “army” and planned to manage them in a militarized manner!
Unlike the Hall of Swords, these white-clothed women were all Aunt Sandals’ heart and soul. Since Sean had decided to take over, he would naturally not be negligent!
The White Army!!!
Upon hearing this name, everyone was shocked. Then, as if with one mind, the white-clothed women shouted to Sean, “Thank you General for the name!”
General!
Just like the General Wolf of the Bloody Wolf Group and the Owner of the Hall of Swords, Sean named them “army” and called them the White Army, so they naturally also addressed Sean as “General”!
Sean was also shocked for a moment, feeling bittersweet!
General Wolf!
Owner!
General!
He really didn’t expect that life after retirement would not only fail to become peaceful, but would become even more colorful. His forces were growing larger and larger, his titles were increasing, and correspondingly, the responsibilities on his shoulders were also growing heavier!
“Get up, all of you!”
Sean gestured with his hand and repeated the four iron rules he had set for the Hall of Swords.
“General…”
After getting up, that little girl Winter glanced timidly at Sean and said awkwardly, “I didn’t know your identity before and looked down on you… You are magnanimous and won’t hold it against someone as ignorant as me, right?”
Among the dozens of white-clothed women, Winter was outgoing and outspoken. She had ridiculed Sean before when seeing him as an outsider. How could she feel at ease now that Sean had become her master?
“Who said I won’t hold it against you?”
Sean glared at her and said sternly, “I’m a narrow-minded person who never forgets and forgives. You insulted me before, of course I can’t just let it go!”
“You must be punished!”
Upon hearing this, Winter’s body shuddered violently, apparently scared. She said in panic, “Ah? Then… what punishment do you want to give me? I will obediently accept the punishment…”
Saying that, tears welled up in her eyes, on the verge of crying!
Sean rolled his eyes, thinking this girl was too easily intimidated. Damn, he was instantly defeated by Winter’s tears. Unwilling to make things difficult for her, he directly said, “I’m hungry. As punishment, you have to cook dinner for us!”
“Huh?”
Winter was shocked again, incredulous. “Just… just that???”
“What else?”
Sean asked impatiently, “Are you complaining that my punishment is too light?”
“No!”
“No!”
“I’ll go!”
“I’ll go cook for the General right away!”
After saying that, she turned and ran away as if afraid Sean would change his mind, moving extremely fast. This made the white-clothed women around laugh behind their hands.
The earthly paradise was located in the cliffs of Sunsetting Ridge, at least ten miles vertically below the apex, as if a large cave had been carved out of the cliff face. The interior space was very large, almost comparable to a small city in the outside world!
In addition to flowers and shrubs around, there were also many vegetables and fruits planted, some poultry and animals raised, completely self-sufficient!
After dinner!
Sean sent the unconscious Cecilia back to the space in the belly of Hill of Swords, placing her right under the Sword of God as Sandals had instructed, to bathe in the divine light of the Sword of God and rely on the rich aura of the Sword of God to maintain her barely alive.
The white-clothed women, Pupil Wolf and others, Howard Taylor and others, Karen Smith and others, were sitting in circles around the Sword of God, silently absorbing the aura of the Sword of God and improving their own strength!
Sean was in no hurry. He and Sandals returned to the earthly paradise and came to the edge of the earthly paradise where the endless dark abyss lay ahead!
The cold moon shed light down and into Sunsetting Ridge, only to be swallowed by the abyss. Looking down from the edge of the cliff, one could only see clearly within a few dozen meters!
“Aunt Sandals!”
Sean couldn’t help but ask, “Did Liane ever tell you how deep Sunsetting Ridge is?”
“What exactly is at the bottom of the abyss?”
Sunsetting Ridge was too deep!
So deep that no one had ever been able to go down and explore. Those who had gone down never came back up!
“No!”
Sandals shook her head and said softly, “Master never mentioned the origin of Sunsetting Ridge or the secrets of the abyss.”
“However!”
“Master said that a long, long time ago, she came from the abyss.”Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
